FAQs
What are the most common signs that I should replace rather than repair my toilet?
Frequent clogs, cracks in the tank or bowl, constantly running water, wobbling at the base, and noticeably higher water bills are all indicators that repair may no longer be cost-effective. If your toilet is more than 20 years old, it is also likely using 3–5 gallons per flush, almost double the water of today’s high-efficiency models. Our Turtletown plumbers can inspect your fixture, identify hidden leaks, and help you decide whether replacement will save you money in the long run.
What kinds of high-efficiency toilets do you install in Turtletown homes?
We offer a full range of EPA WaterSense-certified models, including single-flush HETs (1.28 gpf), dual-flush toilets that let you choose 0.8 gpf for liquids or 1.28 gpf for solids, and pressure-assisted units for commercial or large-family use. Comfort-height, skirted, wall-hung, and smart toilets with bidet functions are also available. Because we partner with leading brands such as Kohler, American Standard, Toto, and Gerber, we can recommend styles that match your bathroom décor and meet your performance expectations.
How long does a typical toilet upgrade or replacement take?
Most standard replacements take 2–3 hours, including removal of the old fixture, inspection of the flange and supply line, installation of the new toilet, and a full leak and performance test. If subfloor repairs, flange replacement, or shut-off valve upgrades are needed, the job may extend to half a day. We schedule convenient arrival windows, protect your floors with drop cloths, and clean up thoroughly so your bathroom is ready for use the same day.
Will you handle disposal of my old toilet and any required permits?
Yes. Our service includes environmentally responsible disposal or recycling of the old porcelain, compliant with Polk County regulations. For remodels involving changes to drain or vent lines, we obtain any necessary permits from the local building department and arrange final inspection, saving you time and ensuring code compliance.
Can you help me choose the right toilet for my budget and space?
Absolutely. During an on-site consultation, we measure rough-in distance, bowl clearance, seat height preferences, and water pressure. We then present several options at good, better, and best price points, explaining flushing technology, warranty coverage, and long-term water savings so you can make an informed decision. Our transparent estimates include all labor, parts, and taxes—no surprise add-ons.
Are there rebates or incentives for installing a water-saving toilet in Turtletown?
Yes. Turtletown customers served by the Tennessee American Water Company may qualify for a $50–$100 bill credit per WaterSense-labeled toilet installed, and additional rebates occasionally become available through TVA energy-efficient home programs. We stay up to date on current incentives, supply the documentation you need, and file the rebate paperwork on your behalf to ensure you receive every dollar you’re entitled to.
